-So this is my first story so please be calm on me. I should be able to upload once a week on a Saturday. Now you can't blame me if I forget, Year 9 (I live in Australia, if I lived in America I would be a Freshman) is taking a big chunk out of my time and I have horrible time management. Yup so that's me!-
Disclaimer – Does it look like I can draw? Well I hope not, cause I can't. BTW I am also failing English so I don't think I can write that many books. So what I mean is that I am neither Yana Toboso nor Rick Riordan.
*Nico's POV*
Will and I haven't had much time to ourselves because of the damage the war made and his busy job at the infirmary. So when we were having a make-out session after curfew and got dragged down into the underworld you don't expect me to be happy about it.
"Father, what do you need now?" I guess you can sense how annoyed I am and probably think bam! Poof! No more Nico, but father got closer with me after the wars so I think he's used to tiny midget annoying me.
"Um… Where am I?" Will asked. He has a good point. Why did Father drag him down here with me?
"Ah… my son's lover. I guess you could be of use and help him out in a mission." Hades exclaimed. By the look on Will's face I think he's a bit nervous being in front of the Lord of the Underworld.
"Another mission? Father its right after the war with Gaia. You want me to do a mission now?"
"I know it's tiring but think about it. It is meant to be your job as the Ghost King and I am helping you here. Another thing is your going with your lover and I will be sending two of my best fighters, by the way they are also lovers. I am sure they will respect your privacy if you respect theirs. And as a bonus to this mission you will both get permanent powers to help out this mission as it is necessary." Hades explained.
"Um, where are they? And also would they mind us being um… Two males, sir?" Will asked. To be honest I forgot that he was there. He asked a good question.
"So your lover is a son of Apollo, I guess he is better than Poseidon's or Zeus's spawn. From what Nico said you are a healer, correct?" Hades asked. And we are going off topic. I guess us Greeks can't stay on the topic can we?
"Yes, I am one of the healers at the camp, sir." Said Will. He's showing his shy here isn't he. Normally at camp he is well… the opposite of shy. And also he is pretty much the only healer.
"Yes, he would be good for you Nico. He has good manners." Hades pointed out. I guess that is one good thing that our relationship does for Hades. "And back to the topic, they wouldn't mind mainly because of their own relationship. They should be here in a few seconds."
And strangely a navy coloured cat and a big black bird suddenly appeared, was my father joking… how are we supposed to fight with two pets. Well my answer was given to me when they both suddenly changed into two people. A boy around my age with strange slate blue hair, and an eyepatch. He was wearing a neat Victorian age outfit with a theme of royal blue and black. And a man probably in his twenty's with ruby red eyes and I am sure they suddenly changed to a magenta for a bit. He was wearing a butler – like outfit. They look like they were dragged right out of the Victorian age.
"Nico, Will this is Corvus and Feles. Or as they prefer Sebastian and Ciel. They are both demons, but interestingly Ciel was a human earl from the 1800's." Hades Introduced. So they are both demons but Ciel was a human. That's really interesting though I think Will looks really uncomfortable now with the god of the Underworld and two demons. "Now Corvus, Feles, change into something more casual. Walking around in that type of clothing won't help, and Sebastian look younger being that age won't work."
Their clothing changed into more modern clothing. The boy was wearing a royal blue shirt and a striped denim vest with jeans whilst the man shrunk a bit and looked younger. He was wearing black t shirt with a red skull and a black hoodie with a pair of black jeans. I'm guessing they need to be under cover.
"I'm guessing Sebastian you are Corvus. Isn't that Latin for Crow? And Ciel you are Feles. And isn't that Latin for Cat?" I asked, it was interesting that they are Latin words.
"Yes, they are both Latin words and stand for Crow and Cat. Ciel's name strangely in French means Heaven." Sebastian informed. They seemed strangely comfortable with us. Normally demons were either really grumpy with me or really fearful. These two seem really comfortable with father and me.
"So this mission has something to do with Nico's title as Ghost King and we are going to be doing this with two demons? Is that correct sir?" Will inquired.
"Yes son of Apollo. That is true. Now I will explain the mission itself." Hades informed. This is interesting, I'm guessing that we will be dealing with some ghosts and maybe some other creatures. "There is a rogue ghost group, they call themselves 'The Pure'. I think Sebastian and Ciel will know who I am talking about. They're leaders are two corrupted angels named Angela and her brother Ash (I know they are actually the same angel / person but it was too hard to explain.) and some of my spies report that King Minos has been supporting them. Now Sebastian and Ciel you will join Will and Nico, you will be saying you are 'legacies' of Erebus. You will be staying in my cabin. Any questions?"
"Yes, why are they 'legacies' of Erebus? Why not call them 'legacies' of Hades?" I asked. I have a feeling that it is important that we try not to lie as much because that would make it harder for them to blend in.
"Well, after a bit of research I found out that us demons were from two children of Erebus and Nyx. So pretty much we are the great something children of Erebus. As we are meant to be blending in as demigods why not be legacies of Erebus. It would be the closest to the truth and easier to say." Ciel explained. Well he seemed to be quite interesting, he seems to know a lot about the history of demons.
"Yes, that is true" Hades confirmed. "Angels are the same story but with Aether and Hemera and Reapers are resurrections of human souls by Tartarus. Now I nearly forgot, I must give you my blessing and Melinoes (Daughter of Hades and Persephone, goddess of ghosts), it is in a form of a piece of jewellery. You four must keep it on you at all times." Hades then gives us each a piece of jewellery. By the looks of it Ciel got an earring, Sebastian a necklace and Will a bracelet. I looked down to see what I got, it was a simple ring, and I guess my skull ring could have a friend.
"Now you must go, I need to work on the ghost congestion at the moment." Suddenly we were shadow travelled into my cabin. Well I guess we need to introduce Ciel and Sebastian to everyone.
